Do you long for partner power in your decluttering? Do visions of decluttering productively together bounce in your head, but you can’t seem to make it a reality? Kathi and Kelly are continuing the conversation on decluttering with a partner. Kathi’s response to this dilemma may surprise you as she discusses: “how doing the Clutter-Free program while trying to declutter with your spouse can be a problem.” In the first episode, Kathi brilliantly covered some of the C’s of decluttering with our spouse. Listen in as the conversation continues to cover more great aspects of decluttering together including:
- How our differences can strengthen us
- Allowing each other to make low-value mistakes
- How to be aware of controlling and codependent behavior
